For some reason, Dr. Sean had a feeling they were chatting across channels.
However, Dr. Sean didn't immediately agree to the other party's request after learning about it. Instead, he thought for a while before speaking.
"How would this collaboration work?"
"It's simple. The main body of the simulated universe project is already complete, and it won't require you two to spend resources.
If you two are willing to join, you just need to participate in a few meetings within a certain period of time and discuss improvement plans for the simulated universe together.
Of course, these are not mandatory. If you two can provide improvement plans, you can completely skip any meetings..."
Lusi Gum said calmly.
As he said, the main framework of the simulated universe had already been built.
Black Tower and the others had already spent the necessary resources, so they didn't need the two new members to replenish them.
Moreover, for Lusi Gum and the others, the truly important thing in research was never resources, which were external things, but rather wisdom...
Precious resources could be bought with money, but precious wisdom was difficult to measure with money.
Compared to resources, Lusi Gum valued their wisdom more!
Then, Lusi Gum explained the operational logic of the simulated universe to them in detail.
After listening to this operational logic, Dr. Sean and Dr. Pate couldn't help but look at each other.
No wonder Commander Lu Chen had directly authorized them. Perhaps he had anticipated this.
After listening to the operational logic of the simulated universe, the two couldn't help but think of the Virtual Calculation Engine technology.
This technology was a perfect fit for the so-called simulated universe.
Of course, Dr. Sean and Dr. Pate wouldn't hand over such advanced technology so easily.
However, with Lu Chen's authorization, they could provide some preliminary technologies to the other party.
The premise was that the technology offered by the other party would be appealing to Dr. Sean...
Thinking about this, Dr. Sean also said:
"Collaboration is out of the question, but we have some technology here that is very suitable for this project..."
As Dr. Sean spoke, he outlined the earliest version of the Virtual Calculation Engine on the display screen in front of him.
It was the technology that had been used to calculate the environment of planet K13 thousands of years ago but failed due to insufficient data.
The reason for the failure had nothing to do with the technology itself, it was simply insufficient data collection...
It was quite suitable to be placed within the framework of the simulated universe.
At first, Lusi Gum was a little disappointed when he heard that the two weren't interested.
However, when he heard the latter part, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
When he saw the sketch provided by Dr. Sean, the surprise in Lusi Gum's eyes completely turned into shock!
Black Tower also felt some amazement as he looked at the technological sketch, which only showed a small part.
As a member of the Genius Club, even if Sean only provided a very rough explanation of the technological principles, they could determine its feasibility through the technical operation provided.
The technical operation provided by Dr. Sean clearly came from a highly perfected technology.
Moreover, it could almost perfectly integrate with the simulated universe.
In fact, Black Tower and Lusi Gum could almost conclude that the other party definitely had an advanced version of this technology...
Otherwise, the other party wouldn't have so casually shown them half of the technological sketch...
"What do you two want?"
Lusi Gum could no longer hide his excitement. He then looked at the two curious people in front of him and asked.
"Space battleship technology. How much do you think our technology is worth, and we'll take that much..."
After hearing Dr. Sean's words, Lusi Gum and Black Tower exchanged glances, and then nodded together.
…………………………
A few hours later
Beep beep!
Lu Chen's Super Nono suddenly sounded an alert.
Lu Chen held the Awakening Spirit in his arms and clicked on the message that suddenly popped up on his personal Nono.
After reading the message, Lu Chen's brows furrowed.
"What's wrong?"
The Awakening Spirit's gentle voice came from the side.
"Nothing." Lu Chen shook his head and then closed his personal Nono.
"It's just that Dr. Pate and Dr. Sean are back. They were lucky enough to bump into Lusi Gum and Black Tower when they went in. The negotiations went smoothly, and they brought back a bunch of the most advanced technology for interstellar warships... It shouldn't be long before the Seir Ship will be undergoing the biggest update ever." Lu Chen explained to the Awakening Spirit with a smile.
The Seir Ship's energy system and drive system had actually been a bit behind the times.
A considerable portion of the technology they got from the Genius Club was practical for the current Seir Ship.
After all, the interstellar warships in the Star Iron worldview didn't use nuclear power...
With the Seir Ship, which could already reach 7,400 times the speed of light using nuclear power, Lu Chen couldn't imagine how many times faster it would be after upgrading to a warp engine...
Adding in the other technologies given by the Genius Club, Lu Chen could already imagine the grand scene of the Seir Ship evolving into a true interstellar warship in the future!
"Master... seems happy?"
The Awakening Spirit looked at Lu Chen with an inquisitive gaze.
"Happy? I guess so." Lu Chen smiled and hugged the Awakening Spirit in his arms.
From Lu Chen's own perspective, the Seir Ship was truly his home.
After all, Lu Chen had spent most of his time from childhood to the present on this ship.
When it came to his feelings for the Seir Ship, Lu Chen wasn't less than any other crew member on the ship.
Improving the Seir Ship for Lu Chen was like renovating his own home.
Even if the Seir Ship got older, Lu Chen wouldn't abandon it. But it was fortunate that the Seir Ship could keep up with the times...
Perhaps, the Seir Ship in the future could expand like a celestial ship and become a true planetary warship!
At that time, the Seir Ship would perhaps become the perfect embodiment of Lu Chen's dream.
